Two FoF Parades which directions?

[tmfranlk]

I'm working on plans for my sister's day on Friday and noticed they've added a noon Festival of Fantasy parade for spring break. If there are two parades does the 3:00 parade still go toward Main Street or will it be reversed?

Both go the same way. Frontierland to Main Street.

Unlike at Disneyland, at MK there is a road-loop backstage that allows the parade to follow around and reset in the same direction.

Is that new? I seem to recall when we were there in '09 MSEP going in the opposite direction.

MSEP does go in the opposite direction.

There can be exceptions, but MSEP runs front-to-back while FoF runs back-to-front--even if there are 2 of them on the same day.

*And actually, I think FoF is not capable of running front-to-back.

So I'm not crazy.... or not more crazy I suppose I should say.

Robo was discussing two runs of FoF, and not MSEP btw.

Oh, I know. But I just thought it odd that MSEP would turn around and go in both directions if they had the road.

Perfect! That's what I was thinking, but since I was having them get their spot while FP/baby swapping BTMRR I wanted to make sure.

Sometimes there is a weather-related or back stage-related issue that can cause a parade to run against its normal pattern.
But, that is the exception to the rule.
